Foster Dog Info for Bios

Welcome Foster!

Thank you for fostering a dog for Austin Boxer Rescue! ABR could not function without the love and generosity of our foster families.

We need some information about your foster dog in order to write a bio for our website. A good bio and cute pictures make a huge difference in terms of interest in our adoptable dogs, so please fill out all the fields below and be as specific as possible. If you don’t know that answer for a specific question (ie — dog has not been tested with cats) please say that you don’t know instead of leaving it blank — each field must have an entry. An ABR volunteer will use this information to write a bio for your dog and it will be online shortly. Thank you for taking the time to provide this important information and thank you again for opening your heart and your home to a dog in need!

Fosters Needed

We need volunteers to temporarily foster a dog in your home until we can place them in their forever homes. Without fosters we can not accept dogs into our rescue. Please fill out our Foster Application if you are interested.

Bobby Benson is a beautiful flashy fawn boy with a face you won’t forget. A perfect white T-bone over his muzzle and forehead highlight striking, alert amber eyes. ABR rescued him from Palm Valley so he’s finishing up his preventive medication for tick borne illnesses and he’s still getting his health back. Some of our Boxers from there are so poorly treated it takes a vet visit or 2 and some time for them to heal. Remarkably, he is heartworm negative. He is happy to have a 7 year old female Boxer and 17 year old female Dachsund as his new friends. He does not live with cats or kids so we don’t know how he relates to them.

Bobby is a calm, easy going guy who likes to amble around and be near his new foster family. He perks up for unfamiliar noises and the occasional squirrel. He is learning commands like sit, space, gentle and wait and he is getting pretty good at waiting his turn for pets and attention (something that’s usually hard for new rescues to do.) He does well on leash with his Boxer sister.

He’s not a fan of his crate, but he goes on in and settles down so long as someone is home. This 5 year old does not like it when his new family leaves; can’t blame him now he finally has one. Bobby Benson has had a pretty rough ride so far just getting to a safe, warm loving family. He has a leg or two left in his journey before he’ll be ready for the transition to a forever family. We’ll do our best to let you know how he’s doing and how close he is to joining your family.

Be sure to submit an adoption application at to meet this adorable boxer boy and make him part of your family.http://austinboxerrescue.com/adoption-application/ ... See MoreSee Less

Our boxers would like to thank all of our donors and bidders that participated in our online auction. We made approximately $11,500 to help with the purchase of our new kennel!! We couldn’t be happier! Although there were so many volunteers that helped make the auction possible there are just a few that need mentioning. Nikki Valencia worked every single day for three months on this. She was actually the leader on every aspect of the auction. Her cool head kept me calm and I can’t thank her enough. Thanks to Rhonda Mates and Fair Woods. Carol Eskew jumped in with both feet, as usual, and Greg and Evie Walberg went above and beyond in donations and support for ABR. We hope everyone will take a short road trip to visit the kennel the first of the year. Thank you... ... See MoreSee Less
